Note 1 Reprint of the 1567-edition. Finished, according to the colophon, in August 1571. It contains very likely corrections provided for by the author: on 29 May 1570 Plantin wrote to Buchanan that he had received his letter of 9 April, together with the book and the note with corrections, which the printer has the intention to use whenever the opportunity arose (Corr., II, no. 230: 'Desideratissimas et gratissimas litteras tuas nono Aprilis Sterilini datas, una cum libro et carta immutandorum, accepi, vir praestantissime, de quibus, ut debeo, maximo habeo gratias. Referam vero libenter, si unquam sese nobis obtulerit occasio'). The 'carta' refers probably to corrections to be used when Plantin should re-issue the Paraphrasis-Iephthes; the 'liber' can be another work (or works) which Buchanan wished to be published by the Antwerp printer. This, in any case, should be deduced from another letter from Buchanan to Plantin, dated 18 November 1575, which leads us to understand that Plantin had used the corrections in his 1571-edition but had no intention to publish the other work sent to him by Buchanan (Suppl. Corr., no. 118: 'Ex postrema Psalterii editione intellexi te meas literas accepisse, reliqua opera, quae una acceperas, quando isthic non licet, quod volebam, velim ad me remittas. Neque hoc scribo, quod de fide ac diligentia tua quicquam dubitem, sed quod unicum mihi istud erat exemplar, quod nisi remittas, omnia mihi erunt magno cum labore ex adversariis colligenda').
